Jesus christ...did Apple kill the majority of this thread's collective Dog or something? I don't think I've seen such
pointless bile towards a company...

The IPOD is good for gaming. The iPAD is too large for gaming in my opinion.
I agree with this. I own an iPod and have a few games for it. It's good fun. It may not be the most powerful platform but I believe it could lead to some good innovation and creative ideas within gaming. Isn't that a good thing? Aren't we all crying for innovation and creativity these days?
I mean, sure, games on the iPod/iPad may not be the most complex or sophisticated but that doesn't mean they can't be fun.
Also, I don't think the iPad is
completely useless from an entertainment perspective (the price is a HUGE negative, though). The comic book applications are well made and provide an easy way to read comics, although the availability of issues leaves a little to be desired. I think digitally delivered magazine subscriptions would work immensely well also (I have no idea if some such service already exists). It's just a shame about the typical Apple product over-pricing really...
